Re: Project PFJ (French Blue Sprint)
Fitted the front bumper today. Thanks to Benny-zt for the underiders.
Driver's side is finished...
Started to clean a wheel by putting it on the hub & putting the car in gear with the engine running. Didn't like the feel of it
so started polishing it manually.
Also set the carbs up. Mary finished doing the rear quarter panels from the vinyl we had left over from the roof (and she's made a damn good job of them)

I love this thread and your work Mart. I can't believe how good your restorations are and how quickly you do them. And your missus gets stuck in too!! Lucky b*****d!
Are you going to keep this one?
